Some Quality Control Issues on the 2015's w/ Pics
After closer inspection of my brand new 2015 GT I've found some issues.
1) Trunk alignment is off. It sits noticeably off to one side making a large gap on the other side very noticeable.
Here's the left side of the trunk.
Notice it doesnt even sit flush on the decklid
And here's the right side
The right side decklid is straight at the bottom but has a noticeably larger gap side to side
2) Rear right side of the bumper, the clips are not snapping up to the body panel. There is a gap there and I can actually see the clips in there and when I push up on the bumper I hear the clips click but they dont grab and it falls back down.
Here's the left side, fitting nicely.
And here's the right side with a nice gap. As I said with better light you can actually see the clips in there and they're not connected. You can push up on the panel and it will click but it does not stay.
3) The hood alignment is quite bad too. There are large gaps on each side above the headlights. It looks just like the first picture of this thread. http://www.mustang6g.com/forums/showthread.php/fit-and-finish-3083.html
Here's how high the fender sits above the hood. If you push it down it then lines up perfect with the hood both vertically and horizontally. This is just shoddy work from Ford.
I just wanted to let everyone know who's shopping to go over these cars for panel alignment issues. I have contacted my local dealer and HOPE they can resolve these quickly on my 48 hour old purchase.
